>>4168402I'm talking crop medium format here, it IS low end. The entire appeal is the price. They're cheaper than both the D6 and 1D X III, let alone cheaper than same-sensor-size cameras.
Why don't I have one? For starters it's not reflex so I wouldn't bother. Secondly, they don't offer any benefits for me. Have you seen that pixel size? 3.76μm. Suppose I were to cuck out and get a mirrorless, I'd get a GH6 instead and enjoy the highest reach in the market, plus some of the best stabilization out there. I'd buy a P1000 before a fucking GFX. I'd buy a Q10 over it too.
There's simply nothing in the GFX series for me.
One of the only Fuji cameras I give a fuck about has a 1/1.8 inch 2 megapixel (full HD) sensor and a 25k price tag. Pic related. They recently launched one with twice the reach, see the attached video:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OsoT4c5GI-4SX800 has 800mm focal length in 1/1.8" equivalent and SX1600 has 1600mm in the same equivalence. In 35mm terms it's almost like having 4000mm and 8000mm equivalents. Just insane reach. They weigh 14 and 16 lbs respectively. Really compact too, just 410 and 450mm on the long side. Just amazing stuff.
